Fireland

Fireland wrote: We use thermoelectric devices in fireland technology. The thermoelectric device generates a voltage when there is a different temperature between each side. We use fire and sunshine to heat one side. When a voltage is applied to a thermoelectric device, it creates the temperature difference. We use this effect to cool another side. This difference in temperature will make electric. Our project creates energy from fire, sunshine, and cold. One of the main function of our project is getting energy without damaging the environment. As we get energy from the difference between temperatures we do not damage the nature...
